Fog covered the place as the moon shined down, snow falling. A group of people shuffled around, all wearing cloaks as they gathered around a barren tree, inside a shrine. All were looking up at the two people who were standing before them.

Both were wearing black tunics but each had different colored robes underneath it. The one with red robe had short red hair while the one with blue robes had blue hair in a ponytail. You couldn't see their eyes since both wore dark sunglasses.

Alister tries not to tremble as he stands next to his mentor. He hated going to these meetings..while he has since he was four and could understand..he hated the stares. He hated them so much he didn't know what to think of..

So what if his parents were fighting on the wrong side..so what if they kiss whatever Dumbledore said..it's not like he ever met them! But he knew that most of these people were the ones who those of the New Religion wrong. These meetings were secret, and only true members of Cipher knew about these meetings. The Cult of Cipher where they tried to return the world back to the Gods..to all the Gods. At least some of them..some just wanted an excuse to kill. Which is why he stood closer to his mentor, keeping an eye on anyone in case they tried to attack him. He looks up when Rakepick places a hand on his shoulder, and gently squeezes it.

"Take a deep breath Alister..we're almost done,"

He nods his head, watching Ragonark float around, the Gastly having evolved into a Haunter during the vicious training this summer. He was in fact chasing a Zorua..what was weird about this Zorua was that it was light gray with red and white accents. He didn't know where the little guy came from but it definitely fit into his team..he was sure that it was a ghost type..

He looks up when the two men spread their arms open, "As Grandmasters of the Cult of Cipher, We now declare this meeting shall end!"

They all bow to the two Grandmasters, before Alister turns his head, "Alister..come along.."

"Yes ma'am, Lady Rakepick," he whispers, before taking a deep breath. Ragonark follows easily behind him, keeping an eye out while Zorua eyes everyone, his fur sparking with purple haze before he leaps onto Alister's shoulder. Rubbing his arm, he tries to ignore the feeling of eyes on him as they walk out of the Crown Shrine.

"I don't know how to handle eyes on me..how do you make it stop..how does Aria handle it?" he thinks to his older sister, who Galar seem to love to watch.

His purple eyes widen when a walking stick blocks his mentor, almost shrieking before Ragonark places a hand on his shoulder. Looking over he sees who it is, already knowing since he could sense his mentor's annoyance.

With a pale and pointed face which was framed by long blonde almost white hair that seemed to never be out of place. His eyes, which were a slight yellowish green, were narrow on Rakepick. He was wearing clothes that seem far fancier than most but also something that most common people would wear. A white button blouse and black pants.

"Well..well isn't it Lucius…I'm surprised to see you hear," Rakepick pushes back a strand of her hair, bright red. She crosses her arms wearing a blood red sleeveless waistcoat and brown trousers. Two light brown belts were wrapped around her waist, one holding the Ultra Balls that contained her Pokemon, "I thought you wouldn't come after you betrayed Voldemort,"

Lucius growls, gripping the walking stick tightly, "I didn't betray the one who spoke to the Gods..unlike you who now has to run, I have made my way into the Albion League..I have many friends in high places..I'm on the School's Board of Governors, influencing the young minds of our future..the only mind you are influencing is the young Potter here," he sneers at Alister who shuffles but also feeling the urge to growl as well, "And who knows how long that will be? There are whispers that not only are the Ace Trainers after you but also the G-men..soon you won't even have your apprentice,"

Rakepick chuckles, "Keep telling yourself that Malfoy, now that Sirius Black is free you will never be a Gym Leader. And sooner or later the Albion League will no longer take any of your..bribes. From what I heard the League is conducting more raids, and I doubt you don't have any items that would harm not only humans as well,"

Lucius' eyes seem to glow in anger, "The name Malfoy still commands a certain respect, and I am the lead Scientist in Macro Cosmos!"

Rakepick narrows her eyes, "Yeah but the name will only help you so much..you do know the meaning of it? Bad Faith in Kalos if I'm right..and if I'm right..it was the Delacour Family he tried to take over, something about how his sister being a woman shouldn't take over?" Rakepick laughs, "Well it seems like she did well from what I heard her son is now an Elite Four member and owns a restaurant and has married a half Veela and has two beautiful daughters. The name Malfoy was branded to your father when he tried to take over and then banished. There are no secrets here in the Cult of Cipher..especially when you are raised in the family," Rakepick smiles before she narrows her eyes and crosses her arms, "Do you need something other than to gloat Malfoy?"

Lucius narrows is eyes, "I think you know why I'm in fact stopping you," he puts down his walking stick, "I have some questions for you,"

"Oh? Questions for little ol me? I'm surprised you wish to talk to me at all!" she mocks, eyes glinting in amusement. Alister knew what she was doing, she was trying to goad Malfoy into attacking her. Usually Lucius Malfoy was like the fire he wielded, pretty and enchanting, helps you keep warm , and helpful..but he was also the destruction of fire too..he burns..he would completely destroy you without a second thought. But..he burns to quickly, he tries to put up the front that his fire was so hot that it freezes but in fact, he would get angry too quickly if things don't go his way.

"First..what were you doing stealing something from Grandmaster Eldes' room? And second..why did you turn Quirrel into Shade..what is there at Hogwarts that you would risk yourself capture?"

Alister jumps a bit when Rakepick snaps her fingers, "Alister be a dear and give me my cloak," he bows at the order.

"Yes, right away, Lady Rakepick,"

He watches as Rakepick slips on the black cloak, her blue eyes glancing at Lucius, "My research at the Academy has been fully approved as you well know, the Grandmasters themselves are on my side..but if you want to know.." she smirks, "The Awaited Child has finally appeared,"

Lucius' eyes widened.. "The Awaited Child?! You don't actually mean.."

Rakepick smiles, "The very same.." she was about to leave when a Ninetales appeared in front of them.

"I don't believe you..you have become a nuisance lately.." Lucius laughs, "The Awaited Child..there is no way..we have been waiting for 5000 years for them to come..we thought it was the Dark Lord..and we were wrong. You know the Lorekeepers have been hunting us and you know that as well as I do..and if you slip up just once..you won't be the only one in trouble..you'll take us down with you. And then there's him," Lucius turns his gaze to Alister, "Why would you turn him into a Shadow..you know what happen when Morgause did it to Morgana she became umperdicible, why do the same when he could be even be an enemy to Cipher,"

Alister growls, feeling the shadows call upon him, but he stills when Rakepick eyes him.

"You taken it too far…it's time for you to stop,"

At that moment Rakepick turns, her hand wrapping around his throat. His yellowish green eyes widen as he grabs Rakepick's wrist, struggling a bit, "You meddlesome little thing, thinking you are better than me! I think I'm going to have to punish you.

"I'm..going to kill you," Lucius mutters before kicking out his leg. Rakepick easily dodges, smiling sweetly as she tilts her head.

"Oh no! But that's terrible!" she places her hand on her face, "I thought we were friends.

Lucius growls and the Ninetales charges, cloaking itself in fire. Alister walks to the wall, leaning against it, already knowing what was about to happen.

"Don't take it personally..I simply have no interest in attracting the attention of the Lorekeepers..and I don't care for your damn excuse of the Awaited Child! You are now a liability Rakepick. Astrice!" Rakepick slides out of the way of the spell, which destroys a stone podium, she then throws one of her Pokeballs which releases a large snake which looked scrunched up like an accordion. Mostly black in color it had several yellow and purple markings. It hisses, opening its jaws wide even as the two enlong red fangs drip with poison. Right before the Ninetales tackled, it swung its tail, the blade at the end hitting the Ninetails in the stomach and making it hit a wall.

Lucius growls, a spell on his lips when he felt pain in his neck. Dropping to his knees he grabs at it, feeling something withering in it. He looks up when he hears Rakepick laughing, "Only a stupid creature as such as yourself would try to defeat me. For someone who was in Slytherin..you sure did charge yourself like a Gryffindor..but you were always terrible in the art of battle..you will be punished…"

"What..what did you do.." he gasps, feeling the air being choked out of him.

"Well even though I was once a Gryffindor..I always had an affinity for snakes..I have a thousand of them in my body..to do whatever i say..even ones of aura..like say..a Fomorroh?"

Alister sees Malfoy's eyes widen, as he begins to scratch at his neck, "A..A fomorroh?!"

"Ah yes..a splendid creature really," Rakepick tilts her head, "It will suck the life force..the aura out of you, everything that makes you Lucius Malfoy will be gone..and in its place..there will be just one thought..one thought that will grow until its consumed you completely. One thought that will now be your life's work, you will not be able to rest until it's done," she then smiles kicking Lucius in the chin forcing him onto his back, "Seviper be a dear and make sure the Ninetales doesn't do anything stupid,"

"Seviper.."

Lucius grunts when Rakepick stomps onto his chest, "I must say this feels very nice on my foot..and lucky for you dear Lucy I need you to be a sound of mind..that Fomorroh has been bred by yours personality..it just makes you follow my commands..so don't worry about becoming a mindless slave," Lucius growls before he blinks when a key was drop, landing on his face.

"A key?" he mutters.

"Ah yes..this will be your first task. And don't think of running, the Fomorroh inside you will tell me..it doesn't matter how far you go..for now on, I'll know wherever you go..and if you try to fight..you will be feeling great pain as the Fomorroh will force you to do what I ask…" she stomps harder making Lucius grit his teeth in pain, "Now..I need you to give that key to a student..it doesn't matter who so don't worry about your precious little dragon..but there has been something lock away and I want you to start the seed that needs it to be release..and unless you are stupid you know who I want release.."

"You..you don't actually mean…" his eyes widened, "Are you crazy?! You want me to free the Being that the Founders sealed?!"

Rakepick smiles, "I don't want to..Lord Shendu wants them released..he wants to test the Awaited Child..and unless you want me to kill you right here right now…" she leans down at him, "So? What's your choice Lucy?"


Aria looks at her Rotom Phone, or more like the list of her school supplies for her second year of Hogwarts. She was walking down the street of Motostoke to Diagon Alley. She looks over to see Piers having a confused look on his face as well.

Second-Year students will require:

The Standard Book of Pokemon (Grade 2) by Miranda Goshawk

Break with the Blissful Bessy by Gilderoy Lockhart

Gadding with Glamour and Fame by Gilderoy Lockhart

Holidays with the Hoarder by Gilderoy Lockhart

Voyage with Volatile Vance by Gilderoy Lockhart

Wanderings with the Weeping Willow by Gilderoy Lockhart

Year within the Yarrow Asylum by Gilderoy Lockhart

"I don't understand?" Bella mutters looking at her paper copy of her list. Aria had learned that once you get the Rotom Phone your school listed gets an email to you, "I get that he's the teacher for Battling 101..but what does his books about the cases he solved have anything to do with that?!"

"So you've been told to get all his books as well?" Aria ask and turns to Lyn who sighs.

"From what I know Lockhart had made every year to get his books..it's one of the reasons why it has taken so long for the school list to be sent out. McGonagall and Snape were arguing with him the whole time, quite amazing I must say seeing those two work together but Dumbledore allowed it,"

"Trying to fill his pockets I bet," Sirius mutters in disgust at the thought of Lockhart. He was still having trouble with his memory but it was getting better. But he definitely remember the toe rag that was Gilderoy Lockart. Even though he was in Ravenclaw the boy was absolutely stupid in trying to take credit for something he didn't even do. And even though he was a few years younger he tried to take credit for what they did. Sure it got them out of trouble sometimes but they did get angry that he was taking credit for their hard work.

"Aria! Aria!" Turning around Aria saw Hermione Granger standing at the top of the flight of steps to Gringotts. She ran down, bushy brown hair flying behind her before she tackled Aria into a hug, almost knocking Nimbus off her shoulder "Oh it's so wonderful to see you again, and you too Piers!" she hugs Piers, who makes a grunting sound, "Oh I'm so excited for this year! The Gilderoy Lockhart is going to teach us! He has solved so many cases and he helped so many people," Hermione then blinks her amber eyes at them when she sees their looks of disgust. "What?"

Aria sighs, shaking her head. She should have seen this coming. During their first year, no, the first week of Hogwarts, all students learn one thing. Hermione Granger took what books say to had many arguments with the older Ravenclaws about how Minister Nobby Leach was forced to leave the office after contracting a mysterious illness. That was at least written in the books but everyone knows that he was getting death threats from many of the old families, from being from a family that was new at Training Pokemon.

"What's worse is that he is going to be a Professor,' Aria thinks to herself, shoulders slumping a bit. Hermione was smart but she also trusted the words of the Professor, sure she distrusted the Headmaster, especially after the end of the First Year..but she was able to grow up trusting the words of the adults..she was able to trust them to not hurt her, to not have any other motives than to help see them grow.

Aria didn't have that growing up.

"Are you coming into Gringotts?" Hermione ask and Aria sighs in relief that Hermione wasn't going to go into a rant about books and Professors again.

"Yeah, we have to get Bella her Rotom I hope we can find the others," Aria said while Bella came over, having waited for Aria to be done reuniting with Hermione.

"Hi! I'm Bella Shine! Nice to meet you!" she chirps out.

Hermione smiles, "So your the Bella that Aria been saying that has been keeping on her toes,"

Aria rolls her eyes and bumps Bella's shoulder, "You be on your toes too if a girl keeps transforming into villains like Venom or Bellos and jump scaring you," Bella snickers, making Aria roll her eyes again.

"Anyway you don't have to look for the others, the Weasley are at Gringotts too since Ginny is going to Hogwarts this year as well and Raihan, Leon and Neville met up with them there.." Hermione said before leading them up the steps of Gringotts. They were bowed in by the trolls, who were under an illusion to look like regular people to those who don't use Aura. Bella looked at it in fascination before Minato pushed her inside, scolding her a bit for staring.

It took all of Aria's willpower to not scrunch up her face at the smell. While being good guards with their greed for gold, they despise all other living beings, especially humans. How they trick there easy into guarding the gold was a mystery but Lyn told her it must have been smart.

"It took the Once and Future King to fake his death because his father, The Forgotten King got enchanted and married a troll..the only way to break an enchantment like that is to cry true tears of remorse..and as one Dragon God said…his heart is as cold as stone."

Ron was with Raihan, Leon (who Raihan was holding his arm to make sure he didn't get lost) and Neville. Mrs. Weasley was trying to argue that Ginny just needed the basics. "My girl doesn't need all that fancy stuff like a Vs Seeker, or a Friendship Checker! She just need the basics," Mrs. Weasley argues while Ginny looks down with a red face. Mrs. Shacklebolt gives a smile and waves her hand at the kids while she and the Khannas had small talk with Mr. Weasley and Hermione's parents, who were staring at Mrs. Weasley a bit nervously.

Aria went to the teller to download the amount of money she needed this year onto her Rotom Phone. During the summer besides having lessons in Aura with Lyn, she had lessons from Sirius. She had learned that she had more than the trust vault that her parents left her (and one for Alister) for her to get through her schooling.


"What do you mean that the Potter Family is the richest Family in all of Galar?!" Aria yelps as soon as what Sirius explains to her sunk in.

"Well yeah..the Potters are descendants of Ignotus Peverell so it isn't a surprise," Sirius shrugs his shoulders but blinks when Aria gives him a confused look. "Well..after the War with the Gods, Ignotus was the only one of the Deathly Hallows still alive, and people wanted him to become King. He didn't want that since he didn't just saved humanity and Pokemon from a tyranny to put them under another one,"

"Wait? Why does he think if he was King he would be a tyrant?"

"Power corrupts was his reasoning," Sirius explained, "He said that he was too powerful already and him becoming King was a bad idea. Researchers said that he probably just wanted to hide away, he already lost his brothers and just wanted to stay out of the way. He allowed Calyrex to rule Galar in hopes to make the alliance with the Pokemon strong. But when the last Kingdom died and the League was staring up, they wanted the Potter at the time to be the Champion or Minister, but they declined but they did become the last Gym Leader of the Sacred Eight. No matter how many Gyms kept switching hands they were always the most powerful. They are look to as leaders, if I remember right as soon as people heard James was part of the order they join as well,"

Remus snorts, "I think I remember the face Dumbledore made when so many turn to James instead of him when they started planning how to stop the next raid,"

"But the thing is, no matter how many Ministers or Champions we have, to the people of Galar, the Potter Family who are the last descendants of the main line of Peverell,"


So yeah, she was fucking filthy rich. She grumbles as she looks to her Pokedex, thinking about how she learned that her money was used on the Dursleys. It hurt..finding out the only reason they kept her was because of the stipend that Dumbledore had bribed them with..all the times they complain about how much she cost, how they would buy stuff for Dudley and dare her to complain. How they paid for trips and left her behind..all of that..was by her money..

But then she smiles, at the last trip to Gringotts she had told the Trolls that she wanted every penny back.

"Aria..your Slytherin is showing," Ron said and she smiles even more, "Ok you're scaring me now,"

Back outside on the marble steps, they all separated. Percy muttering vaguely about needing new writing material. Fred and George had spotted their friend from Hogwarts, Lee Jordan. Mrs. Weasley, Ginny, Minato and Bella were going to the Opening Ceremony.. Aria was wondering if they could go to Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour when she heard a gasp.

Turning she pales when she sees a whole bunch of reporters.

"Its her! I told you she's a lot smaller than on tv!" one reporter said before they all began to crowd her.

"Me first!"

"Let me at her!"

"Please just one interview?!"

"How is your life with Sirius Black?"

"What's it like being a Ward of the Dragoon Family?!

"Please just give me one shot at an interview?!"

"Get out of my way, if anyone gets an interview with the Girl-Who-Lived, it's me!"

Aria struggles, trying to get out. She heard Nimbus cry and could see sparks dancing off his red cheeks, "Oh no…"

But before any of that could happen she felt hands warped around her and pulls her out. Gasping, she looks up as Sirius puts her in Raihan's arms, "Kids, sneak around back while we hold them off!"

"You sure?" Hermione asks, amber eyes wide at all these people.

"You kids just go!" Lyn said while she pulls out a Pokeball along with Mr. Weasley, Remus and Marleen.

Aria gasps as Leon begins to pull her, the seven of them look around, "These guys won't give up," Leon gasps seeing so many reporters.

"When you're not only a Potter but the only known survivor of an attack by He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Name..everyone wants a piece of her!" Ron gasps, taking shuddering breaths.

"Guys!" Hermione points to a building that was besides the elevator of Motostoke, "The museum is the last place they'll look for Aria!"

All of them look at each other before they begin to push Aria towards the Museum.


"Guys! I get it you don't have to push!" she grunts as they go through the sliding door. She blinks at the golden statue. She blinks staring at the sword that he was holding up into the air, "Woah..what's this?"

"Oh..that's the statue of the Hero who saved the Galar Region, The Once and Future King" Hermione said before turning to Aria, "I guess..you never heard the story?"

"Story?" Aria turns to her and Hermione nods.

"Long ago..Morgana and Mordred summoned a great black storm that covered the Galar Region. People today called it the Darkest Day. With it, the land was assaulted by gigantic Pokemon..but they were defeated by a single young Hero..The Once and Future King of Galar bearing a Great Sword. This statue here is meant to depict him. Even today no one understands what kind of sword he actually had..and what this "Black Storm" Morgana and Mordered summon really was, all that we do know is..was that it blotted out the skies all across Galar…with it being called the Darkest Day.."

Aria turns to the statue, tilting her head at it.

"Hey guys! They're having an exhibit of Ancient Ransei!" Neville said reading the sign.

Everyone looks at each other, knowing what they know, "Maybe we'll find answers..on how to defeat him," Ron mutters looking at Aria.

"I guess we have no choice.." Aria mutters before looking at the directions.

"Pika.." Nimbus curls closer to Aria.

"Yeah..I feel it too.."

"So I'm not the only one?" Piers sighs in relief rubbing his head.

"What are you guys feeling?" Hermione said looking at Aria, Piers, Raihan and Leon.

"Something is calling to us," Raihan mutters as they strolled along the winding hallway. They approached a doorway, and Aria could feel her Aura humming in her skin.

"It's in here," Leon grunts.

When they entered, the room was mostly empty..there was no one in here, besides three ancient stone carvings.

"Woah..these..these must be thousands of years old.." Hermione mutters but then her eyes widen, "No way..Piers! That guy looks like you!"

It was true, the middle slab had a carving of a person looking exactly almost like Piers but wearing ancient armor.. Above him was a carving of a Hydreigon, roaring proudly against its opponent. The opponent itself was in fact, a Tyranitar who was standing guard for a person that while not looking like Aria, had the same spike up hair that she had when her aunt forced her to cut it so short.

Piers kneels down, "Critias Black versus Ignotus Peverell.." he looks up at the stone "You mean this..this is my ancestor?"

"Woah.." Raihan and Leon were staring at the other Tablet to the left. This one also had Cristias on it but there were two others as well. One with a Charizard and looking like Leon the other with a Duraludon that looked like Raihan.

"The Legendary Warriors," Leon reads, "Critas Black, Timaeus Shacklebolt and Hermos Khanna..I never heard of them,"

"Of course you haven't..they're legend has been washed away by the current of time. It's only now that we know where to search can we find the answers, the answers you seek oh Awaited Child,"

Aria and the others turn to see a woman standing at the entrance. Her hair was short and messy, a dark brown with an orange patch. Her violet eyes seem to stare at Aria as she walks into the room, her black combat boots made a clapping sound on the hard tiles. She was wearing black jeans with a green shirt. Over it was a brown leather jacket. Like many trainers she had a trainer belt wrapped around her, but Aria's eyes were on the staff she had in her hand.

"Who are you?" Aria asks as Nimbus growls a bit. She looked up when Raihan stood in front of her.

"What are you doing here Merula?" Raihan growls his eyes narrow on the woman.

The woman, now known as Merula sighs, her violet eyes looking at Raihan in sorrow, "I'm here because you four need answers to the questions you seek. I have uncovered many mysteries about the Deathly Hallows and their Legendary Warriors..in a time when evil sorcerers and Demon Gods threatened to destroy the Entire World.."

"Oh yes..do tell us about those Evil Sorcerers, Snyde," Aria gasps as she spots Lyn, but she blinks at the anger in her blue eyes, "You would know all about that wouldn't you?" she sneers gripping her staff as Balthazar prowls beside her, hissing up a storm.

Pain flashes in Merula's eyes as she turns, "Its..its good to see you too..Dragoon,"


So things are staring to start up! We get a look to what has been happening to Alister and oh boy Lucius is in trouble (couldn't have happen to a better man lol..I don't like the Malfoy Family) we also get a trip to Diagon Alley and looks like there is more to Raihan, Piers and Leon than we originally thought.

And remember Lyn is actually base off my character from Hogwarts Mystery..I made mentions of Rowan..so of course the others will show up too! Anyway hope you all enjoy! Leave a comment please!
